charleydodge seem like you should start your own thread and not hijack this one.

nice choice ! i have a 47 with a 350. firewall is still complete and the steering box is original, and in the stock location. inner fenders will have to be trimmed. another problem is headers. i haven't found a set to work yet.

I also have a 47 Dodge. Mine is a busines coupe. The one with no side window and a looong trunk.. SBC with 400 turbo. No firewall cutting and uses block hugger headers. Cavalier rack&pinion steering and a few www.Fatmanfabrications.com front end parts.

sure, i think the huggers might work, but i need them to go into the wheel wells to hook up to the side pipes. the steering box mounts to the inside of the frame rails, really close to the head . not a lot of room. old style 4 into 1 out the back might work, but i haven't found them yet .

engine off-set

A lot of cars-vans were made with the engine off-set to the side, You might be able to move it over a bit to have clearance. Ideal is centered, mabe trim a bit off the front coil spring to get it to set level.

Have you tried block hugger headers? They're designed to fit in tight spaces. Hooker makes a good set. You'll lose some low end torque; but, they're still better than stock manifolds.
